If Bernie Machen thinks Urban Meyer should be the SEC’s highest paid head coach, but Les Miles has an escalator clause in his contract making him the highest paid head coach, how’s that gonna work out?

“Though it’s obvious Kiffin has few friends among SEC coaches — he didn’t stay and eat lunch in the meeting room with his fellow coaches and didn’t converse with them in the halls during meeting breaks — he doesn’t seem to care.” No shit, Sherlock.

Think the folks at Mississippi State are thrilled about the new SEC TV contracts? Put it this way: this year’s distribution from the conference is almost one-third of the school’s total athletic budget.

So, the GPOOE™ had front row seats at a NBA playoff game. What the author fails to account for is that Tebow was probably invited to attend as a back up physician for one of the teams. You never know when some player might need an emergency circumcision. What I want to know is what’s the deal with all of those wrist bands?

Seems like a lot of coaches have these “must be among the three highest paid coaches in the [conference/country]”… I’ve always wondered what would happen if more than 3 coaches had those clauses… Or worse, if the Les Miles clause wound up in anyone else’s contract…

“Why can’t we win it all? We’re playing as well as anyone in college football right now. We won the best conference in college football. Yeah, we’re confident, but we know it starts with one game. If we win that one, we get another.”– Dominick Sanders, First and 10, Saturday Down South, 12/13/17
